Reviews for 30 Minutes II: The Gathering Storm
Rose chapter 16 . 7/10/2022
Almost 11 years since last update. I take it this story will never be finished, so disappointing.
lilcat17 chapter 16 . 7/10/2022
I hope you have not given up on this story. I found it to be quite unique and fairly well written.
PGHammer chapter 8 . 7/2/2022
This story's Severus Snape shows how insular he is when it comes to Potions - which makes absolutely NO sense when it comes to Mastery - of ANY subject - least of all Potions - or any Mastery, for that matter. (Kinsfire's "With a Little Help From My Friends" shows Narcissa - who is darn near a Potions Mistress herself - which even that story's Severus Snape admits! - at least a voracious reader of non-UK Potions texts despite being forced to NOT go the rest of the way down the Potions Mastery track by her marriage - why would a PRACTICING Potions Master/Mistress NOT emulate that? Horace Slughorn certainly did - and he taught both of them. (I do when it comes to IT - and not merely because I still do IT.)

The surmise about Muggles and Squibs is, in fact, based on this very lesson - in canon - as there is NO wand-waving involved in Potions. The same surmise is expanded on in "Life Sucks, Then You Die" from the same author of this fanfic - and leads to a rather ranty review - from me - over Magical Britain's treatment of both Squibs AND magically-aware Muggles.

This story was just as brilliant as the first! You spent so much world and character building that I wish you could have finished.
Noobmaster6785 chapter 16 . 6/11/2022
please continue this amazing story
Eagleone 55 chapter 1 . 5/3/2022
If you are still writing is it possible for you to finish this one? I really would like to read the rest.
Thank you
Chris

Absolutely love this story and its predecessor. So sorry to see it abandoned
SixFtWookie chapter 16 . 4/15/2022
It's disappointing that an overall good fic that just got to the parts I was looking forward to is abandoned. It could have definitely used an editor's touch but it was entertaining. No ridiculous bashing, Dumbledore isn't a moustache twirling villain, there's a very distinct stance against underage sex. You have managed to avoid many of the greater and more prevalent errors made in the writing of a Harry Potter fanfic. But it really did stop just as it was getting to the parts I wanted to read about.
PGHammer chapter 8 . 3/18/2022
The closest to "Mind/Body/Magic" in a non-Watanabe fanfiction is in "White Knight, Grey Queen" and came jointly from the Unspeakables and Muggle SOF (specifically the UK SBS); however, there is nonfiction - whole reams of it - including video - from a wide variety of sources - not merely the West, either. (I'm talking Russian SOF - Spetsnaz - and Japanese National Police - the Kunika.). On THIS cgaper's outcome Severus os right about there being a Black onfluence; however, it is NOT the Black that Severus suspects that is the influencer, but Arcturus. (While Arcturus was known to be alive at this point - he had pretty much vanished from the Magical scene - in canon, he and Harry had never met.) Still, Severus DID eat the crow sandwiches - including he feathers and beaks. Publicly.

To Calmzone1: The bindings on Harry and Clarice were removed (along with the Horcrux in Harry) in their first year at Watanabe; the procedures were also taught to both as part of the Mind/Body/Magic Watanabe tracks in Healing (Clarice) and Defense (all students).
K chapter 16 . 2/7/2022
A brilliant story, and now a ‘clffie’. Why ever did you abandon it? Unless of course circumstances, illness or similar occurred. There are only a handful of stories that I have discovered on this website, episode 1 being one of them. Looking at the date of your last update I have to assume that it has been abandoned. Sad!
K chapter 15 . 2/7/2022
Very successful chapter in an amazing story.
murgel chapter 16 . 2/9/2022
It has been almost eleven years, and I still love this story.
Thanks for the good times I had while reading it.
And of course - may the muse strike you with inspiration so that we poor souls can read more...
BlazeStryker chapter 8 . 1/27/2022
"Can't very well see the stars from inside, can you?"

I've been meaning to ask; given the enchanted ceiling of the Great Hall, why not do it there?
